.1u the justice of such resistance. The grena diers of this regiment sallied out of their bar racks—drums beating—colours flying—and when they saw a body of troops destined to attackthern, the/ formed ahollow square, and actually became the assailants. Succumbing to numbers,their resist :we has been crushed—whether the spirit by which resistance was excited has been extinguished, time alone can skew. As yet but one side only has been heard—and that CONSTANTINE should, under the decisive ascendancy of the party of the EMPRESS mother * have the power of addressing the European Pn bile, were beyond all present hope. A mili tary revolt, in which a popular and distinguished General lost his life, and two Officers of equal rank were wounded, cannot but he viewed as an alarming indication of the feeling of the Russian soldiers. It yet remains to be seen, with what temper these events will be received by the army on the Pruth. The presumption of the corn piler of the A linanack in announcing the Grand Duke Ntcllowis as heir of the throne of Russia, may perhaps, he overlooked without the threaten ed visitation—it will not now be suspected that the insertion was made without authority. A Hamburg!) Mail arrived this morning, by which we have received advices from St. Peters burgh. The following are extracts : HAMIItYROIL, JAN. 4. An express that arrived at one o'clock this morning from Berlin, was followed by many others to mercantile houses, and some to foreign diplomatic agents, which bring the highly im portant news from St. Petersburgh, that after the uncertainty respecting the acceptance of the Imperial dignity by his Ma jesty, the Emperor Constantine had kept every thing in sus pense for several days; at length on that day the final act of renunciation in favour of the Grand Duke Nicholas had been received, who was thereupon proclaimed Emperor, as successor ts) his Majesty. The brotherly love and esteem of the two brothers has b‘ien shewn in the highest light, anti it is only alter the most positive declaration of the next heir to the .throne, that his present Majesty was induced to accept the lin. perial Crown. ST. PETERSDUROII, DEC. 24. The Gazate of the Senate, of this date, contains nothing re specting the death of the Emperor Alexander, or of the succes sion to the throne, but a Supplement to the Number of Nov. 20 (Dec. 10), is published with it, containing first " An Ukase of his Imperial Majesty the Autocrat of All the Russias from the Directing Senate ;" which announces the death of the Em. peror Alexander, and that the Senate had taken the oath of, allegiance to the lawful heir, his Majesty the. Emperor Con stantine. It contains directions for taking the oath of all classes of his Majesty's subjects. The form of the oath is added. Under the reign of the late Emperor Alexander, which was of nearly 25 years duration, the following acquisitions of terri tory were made by the Russian Empire, either by treaty or con quest :—I. The province liyalistock. 2. The Grand Duchy of Finland. 3. Bessarabia. 4. The Persian provinces to the ArAxis and the Kur. 5. The kingdom of Poland.

The JourtiA of Liege, contains the following important article " The Government is going to publish all the Papers relstive to the negotiations with the. Pope I the exorbitant pretensions of Ultremontanisni will be seen in them : the demand to place in the hands of the priests all the registers of births, &c. is not that which will the least astonish the r ceder. —(llrussell Palm- I, Pecomber 1.) The Allwemeine Zeitung of the 6th, contains the following communication from Constanti nople, under the date of 10th December : It is generally affirmed here that the Captain Pacha has landed a part of the expedition from Alexandria, at Misr longhi, and !bat the bulwark of the Greeks will spe edil y sur. render. The same is expected of Napoli de Romania. But, notwithstanding the unfavourable turn. of the campaign for the Greeks, the Porte has adopted a measure which causes a peat sensation, and confirms the report which has been in circulation for the last two months, that Ibrahim had long ago been advised by the Porte to negociate with the Greeks, in order to avoid a catastrophe fatal to the whole Ottoman Empire. The notorious Husseim Bey, formerly Director of the Arsenal, and Nedjeb Effendi, agent of the Viceroy of Egypt, were unexpectedly summoned before the Divan, and sent to the More,a on a mission, the object of which is said to be to obtain the submission of the Greeks by nego tiation. •Opinions differ respecting the cause of this conduct of .the Porte, but every body is convinced that it would not adopt such a measure except in a case of extremity. Many persons think that it is owin to more energetic language held by the European The insurrection in Condit), though not suppressed, can hardly be the cause, as the Porte has hitherto paid little at. tendon to such partial insurrection.—(.4llgenieine Zeitung, Jan. 8.) A Jamaica Mail arrived in town this morning, bringing Journals to the 28th November. The GOVICINOII, opened the Seisions on the Ist, with a Speech, of which the following is an abstract : ‘,` I. ant happy to meet you at the usual season of the year , auil to offer you my sincere congratulations on the undisturbed tranquillity which the Colony at present enjoys. The measures which have been adopted in the Imperial Parliament, by which the interests of the West India Colonies have been so liberally consulted. The ports have been opened to foreign ships ; their trade open to foreign countries duties lowered ; large fees which have been levied in the Colonial ports are either modified or altogether abolished. There is no Colony which will be more essentially benefited by these arrangements than Jamaica, Two years have now elapsed since 1 was instructed to submit to you certain propositions for improving the condition of the Slave population,, which in almost every instance had been sup- Rested to his Majesty's Government at the - commencement of the last Session. I renewed my representations to you on this subject; no period can be more propitious fora calm considers . Lion of what may be practicable for the further protection of the Persons ; the security of the interests which the laws have • Pieced under your immediate controul than the present—the Colony enjoying perfect repose." KINGSTON, Nov. 19.—. Arrived at Port Royal, on Sunday, the Belette briF, Captain Croker, from a cruise off the North side; and on Thursday the Renegade schooner, Lieut. from tne grand Cayenanas ; sailed on Tuesday the Belette brig, Capt.

KINGSTON, Nov. 19.—The Committee of the Honourable House of Assembly, on the Slave Evidence Bill, have been occupied this week in examining various evidences, and as all summoned have now been before them, it is probable the Bill may be prepared and presented to the House on Tuesday next. We are happy to find that Mr. William P. Stewart, Pro prietor of the Dominica Chronicle, who suffered a cruel iMpri. sonment. of eighty-three days in a " dirty and unwholesome . Gaol," for alleged contempt of the House of Assembly of that Island, and who was lately proseeuted . for a libel against that House, has been acquitted by a Jury. A 'petition was presented on Thursday to the Honourable House of Assembly, from a French gentleman earned J. Le Grand Fils, lately arrived in this island, stating his having made several valuable discoveries in the manufacture of sugar and rum. We understand that he is an able and scientific che mist, who has undergone several examinations, both in Paris and in London, and has been sent out here at the expence of the West India body ut home. By some chemical process he prepares the molasses and other mat ter for distillation in such a manner as at once to produce alco hol, of 63 degrees greater strength than proof rum, without any low wipes, and with one.tixth of the fuel now necessary, and ors° pure a nature as easily to be converted into brandy, gin, or other liquor. He is at present making preparations for his ex periments at Belmont estate, in St. John's, the property of Mr. Shand. While in London he published a small pamphlet, ex planatory of his system.

The Brigantine, Hannah, Isabella, Pagan, which sailed from Port Royal on the 17th last September for Xagua in Cuba, has uqt dace been heard of. We have received a seriem of Bogota Journals to the 3d November inclusive. They do not con tain any political news of interest. BogoTAII Nov. 3.—On Friday, Oct. 28, the festival of his Excellency the Liberator President of Colombia, General San. tander gave a splendid ball in honour of his illustrious friend. The saloons were decorated expressly for the occasion, with the standards which in different actions had been wrestrd from the oppressors of this country. What chiefly at tracted the attention of the brilliant assemblage, were the standards with which Pizarro had first catered Peru, in the year 1533, which had been taken by the Colombian Army, on their entrance into Cuzco, nnil had been presented to the Vice- President by Colonel Elizalde, who had been deputed for that purpose. The electors chosen by the different cantons of the province of Bogota assembled in the Chamber of Representatives on Satur day last, to exercise the important functions entrusted to them by their constituents. That day was devoted to the election of-the President and Vice-President of the Republic, and the follow. ing Monday and Tuesday to those of Senators for the Depart ment, and Representatives for the Province. We annex a list of the individuals upon whom their choice has fallen for Presi. dent and Vice-President. Pre:Ur:a—His Excellency Simon Bolivar. Viet•Pretideras—Sr. Luis Andres Barelt, 26 votes ; Sr. Francisco de Paula Santander, 10; Sr. Pedro Briceno Men. dez, 2 ; Sr. Jose Maria del Castillo, 1. On Thursday last St. Pedro Gaul left this city, with his Lady far Panama. Sr. Revenga has succeeded to the office of his distinguished predecessor. CARACAS, SEPT. 14.—A horrible and unmanly attempt was made to assassinate Senor Gusman, the Editor of the Argos, on Friday night last by Colonel De Lima, who lay in wait 14 his victim near the Esquina de las Palmas, and under cover of the night, wounded hint in the back, in three distinct places, with • a sabre. The cause of this outrage is stated to he an article which appeared in the Argo. of last week, transmitted to the Editor, by a Correspondent, and containing reflections on the charmer of Colonel De Lima. Sr. Guzman was borne in a senseless state, to the house of General Morino, where his/ wounds were dressed, and although severe, we are happy to learn that they are not dangerous. Colonel De Lima is to con- linement preparatory to taking his trial for the offence. It is not unfrequent to meet bulls running thrOugh the streets, sometimes thronged with people, closely confined by a !aro to a man on horseback, who is not always able to govern its fury, goaded as it is by innumerable boys and men, to the manifest risk of the liver: of all those who are nut able to get out of the way Of its violence. Again, owing to the mischievous use of crackers and fireworks for the amusement of idle children, it has become dangerous to pass along the streets on horseback, and not improbable that you may receive some serious personal injury from their being injudiciously allowed to perhapsxp of trailing loie.Stcl i t n oceurrences, although here they are considered consequences, are, in other countries, where human life is of much less value, rigidly prohibited, and made the subject of legislative interference. Yesterday, Sir llxanatur TAYLOR transacted military business with the Duke of Yonx, at his house in South Audley-street, Mr„ W YNN transacted business at the Foreign Office yesterday. Letters received yesterday from Madrid an• nounce that the Pope's Nuncio in that city, with a spirit of liberality which may at first sight ap pear not in accordance with that. character, has been for some time actively engaged in urging Ferdinand to recognize the independence of his late trans. Atlantic possessions. The reasons by which his Holiness is supposed to have been stirred up to this work of brotherly love, are the loss of influence end , the loss of revenue from those rich countries under which he necessarily labours so long as they and the mother country remain iu a state of contention. It were a " consummation," without doubt, far more " devoutly to be wished" by his Holiness, that they should revert to the yoke of Spain ; but seeing that such au event is altogether out of the question, he is anxious to gather in that portion of the harvest which may still accrue to him, when the parties shall he restored to a mutual good understanding. The representative of his Holiness at Madrid is said to be zealously as sisted in !di ,pious work by the French Ambas sador. There has juqt occurred a most striking instance of the effects of excessive sensibility. It will be fresh in the recollection of every one, that about a fortnight back three men were executed at Newgate. In the office of the Solicitor employed in the defence of one of these unfortunate p er . sons, was a young man, who felt such uncommon interest in the case, as impelled him to exert with the utmost zeal all the energies of his mind and body, with a view to save from an ignomi nious death the object of his sympathy. It is said, that after all other efforts lied proved unit. veiling, he took a post-chaise and four, and pro. ceeded to Windsor, for the purpose of making application at the fountainhead of mercy : hay ingteen unsuccessful in this, as well as in his former benevolent endeavours, he felt so intensely the disappointment, that he has actually become bereft of reason : this is the more remarkable, as he was in no degree related to the party on whose behalf he felt such peculiar anxiety.

I The Lords of the Treas u ry a dj ourne d on lired nesday afternoon to meet again yesterday morn ing, to hear the Counsel of Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Ilislop, in reply to the case made out for the Marquis of Ilastiugs, as st a t e d by 1)r. Lushington and Mr. Adam. The Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Ex chequer came to town yesterday morning before eleven o'clock from Coombe Wood and Becken ham, to attend the merging at the Treasury Chamhers, which was appointed at half-past eleven o'clock, but it was twelve o'clock before the Lords assembled. Their Lordships re omitted some time it: consultation before the Tree. vary Board-room was opened for the admission of Counsel, and the parties interested in this impor tant question. The same Lords were present as we slated yesterday, and Viscount Lowther, M. P. whose name we omitted yesterday as being present on Wednesday. The Secretaries to the Treasury, Messrs. Lush ington and }ferries, were present. The King's Advocate and the King's Proctor it tteudvd their Lordships. The Duke of Wellington, one of the Commis sioners, was not present ; Mr. Arbuthnot, the other Commissioner, attended. Mr. Harrison addressed their Lordships in reply to Mr. Adam and Dr. Lushington, who lied pleaded the case of the Marquis of Has tinge, and commented on their arguments. The Learned Gentlemen's reply, interrogatories, and questions from their Lordships, lusted till half past three o'clock, when the Counsel of the We rested parties were ordered to withdraw from the auard-rooru. Their Lordships continued in private consul. tatiott above half an hour afterwards ; but, we understand, did not come to any decision upon this important question, but postponed giving it to a future day ; hut it was not known whether it will be declared by their Lordships person- ally, or made known as a Treasury minute. Sir William Kier Grant, Sir John Doyle, and a number. of other Military Officers interested in this question, were again admitted to hear these important proceedings, upon which the distrihu. lion of such immenge wealth depend, said. to be upwards of 2,000.000/. Soon after the close of the discussion, the Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Excite. quer left town. WINCHESTER QUARTER SESSIONS. At these Sessions the Duke of Bucturxolliat appealed against the Conviction of the Magis. Crates (Mr. POULTEB, and Dr. NEWBOLT), for convicting his Grace in the mitigated penalty, under a late Act, for not having his Christian and surname on his waggons and carts. There were 17 Magistrates on the Bench, including the Chairman (Mr. POLLEN), eight for, and eight against the conviction, when the conviction was quashed by the Chairman giving the casting vote in favour of his Grace. Mr. LocKu4RT, M. P. was on the Bench, and argued very strongly in favour of the conviction, as, in his opinion, alt Acts of Parliament ought to be interpreted ac cording to the letter. Cardinal liacuttetzu one day *shed his cone fessor, M. Millet, how many masses were required to get a soul out of purgatory,?

THE PARKS.—En consequence of the continued severity of the weather, the Serpentine River in Hyde Park, and the Canal in St. James's, are now .sufficiently frozen to bear with safety any number of persons. Yesterday the former was covered with skaters and sliders; among the former we noticed several young Noblemen, who went through a number ofastonishing manoeuvres, to the great amusement of a vast mul titude of fashionably-dressed females, who lined the banks of the river. Various ingenious figures were cut on the ice by the skaters, although in their evolutions a nurnberof dangerous falls took place. Among the Gentlemen we observed the Hon, 0, Ponsonby, who described a greal variety of figures. Several races by the skaters took place. The Basin in the Green Park, as well as Rosamond's Pond, was thronged with men and boys, but the latter predominated, and the sport was chiefly confined • to sliding. One youth was immersed in the water, but was soon extricated by the by-standers. The Canal in St. James's Park was completely covered, chiefly with persons of the lower ranks. Since the fatal occurrence of last Tuesday, the number of men belonging to the H umane So c i e ty, in attendance, has been doubled. • early nn th e following her THE Lave LARD AHTHIIH PAGET,—Twl"ree the y inail/8 h ° ait f t e h d e above much lamented young Nobleman arrived at the King's d lf u e ri a n d g l n i n h , e i n n l ig )e h r t b , y a , n o d n S w a e t re u r t in y o aft e r t rn i °° morningfor interment in the family_ Vault ut Lichheld.

THE LATE MURDEItIN aItAY'S.INN-LANE. Mary Caen was put to the bar on an meat charging her with the ttilful murder of Maurice Fitzgerald, in Horne's-alley, G.ray's.. Inn-Lane, on the t6th of December last. The circumstances of this case have so lately been fully laid before the public, that a repetition of them is rendered unnecessary, beyond the fact that a witness was called who swore shut she saw the prisoner wash the yard some time after the murder. There were 16 witnesses sworn for the prosecution, which was conducted by Mr. Lira, derick. The prisoner had no Counsel. Margaret Caen, tlie• daughter, was put in the witness-box. her testimony was nearly the same as that given on the former occasion. She de nied having broil present at the transaction until the deceased had been wounded, and added, that when Mrs. ley ley said she would go for a doctor, she, the witness, said, " Do, do, and make haste." The other witnesses were merely put in the box pro forma, but the prisoner declined asking them any questions.
